What is the FluX Methane Ethane Core Sensor used for?
SensorX builds the FluX Aero module for drone-mounted gas detection surveys. It is widely used for greenhouse gas monitoring and safety monitoring campaigns. SensorX offers a dual-gas version with an additional ethane (C2H6) measurement for methane leak detection applications. This core sensor is that version.
Single-gas or dual-gas?
| Core sensor | Gases | Output rate |
|---|---|---|
| FluX Aero Methane Sniffer | CH4 | 2 Hz |
| FluX Methane Ethane Core Sensor | CH4 and C2H6 | 1 Hz |
What it works with
- The SkyHub onboard computer manages the flight, logs FluX measurements in geotagged form and sends live sensor data to the ground. An RTK/PPK receiver on the drone gives centimetre-level coordinates.
- UgCS and Payload Monitor for mission planning and control, with gas readings streamed to your laptop in real time.
- DroneGIS for data validation, intensity maps and reports, in cloud and on-premise versions.
- A supported drone such as the DJI M350 RTK.
- For survey skills, see our methane detection training.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is this different from the FluX Aero Methane Sniffer?
The FluX Aero Methane Sniffer on our site uses the single-gas methane core at 2 Hz. This dual-gas core adds an ethane (C2H6) measurement and reports at 1 Hz.
Which drones can carry FluX Aero?
SensorX designed it as a payload for many commercial drones, such as the DJI M300, DJI M350, Inspired Flight IF1200A, Harris Aerial H6 and Wispr Ranger Pro.
How is the data recorded?
The SkyHub onboard computer logs the readings in geotagged CSV and LOG files, using the drone's GPS. You can view the gas values on your laptop in real time.
